Sri Yukteswar Giri (The Holy Science) taught that there are five stages of the heart. These stages not only describe the way you feel but also the state of your consciousness. Knowing them can help in understanding one’s life, as well as the lives of fellow seekers. Exploring these stages can make clear where you are on the spiritual path.
As a result of being devoted, your heart and mind become clear. Sri Yukteswar uses the term clean. The ignorance and delusion to which you were accustomed is washed away. You now see things in a new light. You recognize that this spiritual reality is expressing as matter, our bodies, the entire human race and the galaxies.
In your clear state, you behold and comprehend Spirit. You understand that you are a spiritual being and this entire universe is an expression of Spirit. You are serene but also invigorated by Spirit every day. You find life wonderful and thrilling.
We ask you to commit two hours a week to selfless service. This service can be anything you choose ranging from helping a family member or neighbor to volunteering at a nonprofit organization.
This commitment is solely between you and your inner self.
